Baking soda to remove corns

Can lemon and baking soda help remove corns and calluses?

There are hundreds of folklore remedies for corns and calluses. Some involve applying lemon, baking soda, frog skin, mango pulp, Garlic power, dog’s piss, cat’s poop, snake’s gallbladder, cow’s urine and so on. I have no idea if these therapies work. Since we live in a free country, you are free to try them. 


Personally, I would invest in a decent pair of shoes and buy a soft shoe inserts. Avoid a foot doctor because more likely than not, you will be scammed into buying expensive devices which are no better than what you can get in any shoe store.
